1) Check the ambient temperature, humidity,
vibration, atmosphere (dust, gas, oil mist,
water drops).
2) Is the area surrounding the equipment free of
foreign objects.
Are the voltages in the main circuit and the
control circuit normal?
1) Is the display hard to read?
2) Are the characters complete?
1) Is there abnormal sound or vibration?
2) Are nuts or bolts loose?
3) Is there deformation or damage?
4) Is there discoloration as a result of overheat-
ing?
5) Are there stains or dust?
1) Are there loose or missing nuts or bolts?
2) Are there deformations, cracks, damage, or
discoloration due to overheating or deteriora-
tion in the equipment and insulation?
3) Are there stains and dust?
1) Is there discoloration or distortion of a
conductor due to overheating?
2) Are there cracks, crazing or discoloration of
the cable sheath?
Is there damage?
1) Is there electrolyte leakage, discoloration,
crazing, or swelling in the case?
2) Is the safety valve not protruding, or are
valves protruding too far?
3) Measure the capacitance if necessary.
1) Is there any unusual odor or damage to the
insulation by overheating?
2) Is there an open circuit?
Is there abnormal buzzing or an unpleasant
smell?
1) Is there a rattling noise during operation?
2) Are the contacts rough?
1) Are there any loose screws or connectors?
2) Is there an unusual odor or discoloration?
3) Are there cracks, damage, deformation, or
excessive rust?
4) Is there electrolyte leakage or damage to the
capacitor?
1) Is there abnormal sound or vibration?
2) Are nuts or bolts loose?
3) Is there discoloration due to overheating?
Is there foreign matter on the heat sink or intake
and exhaust ports?
1) Conduct a visual inspection and use
appropriate meters.
